Nation don’t cry
Beloved
country don’t you die
While
your children sigh
Saying
why oh why
Why
this why now
Could
we not somehow
See
the writing on the wall
And
make a better call
Having
won the world cup
Is
our time now up
Are
we now has been
On
the African scene
We
are not lying down
For
a virus with a crown
Seen
miracles before
Lord,
give us one more
Is
our money down the drain
Was
our hard work all in vain
How
are we supposed to cope
If
there isn’t any hope
We
in the South
Shall
say with one mouth
Nkosi
sikelela
Hallelujah
amen selah
There’s
a God up in the sky
He
will hear us when we cry
We
must never give up praying
Listen
to what he is saying
A
defender of the poor
Our
sickness he will cure
In
our pain he’s very near
And
he sees our every tear
He will drive away our fear.
